Adult posthaemorrhagic hydrocephalus animal models

Posthaemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH) is often associated with high morbidity and mortality and serves as an important clinical predictor of poor outcomes after intracranial haemorrhage (ICH). We are lack of effective medical intervention methods to improve functional outcomes in patients with PHH because little is still known about the mechanisms of PHH pathogenesis. Animal models play a key role in the study of PHH. Developed a suitable animal model that will help us to be better to find preventative strategies and improve the prognosis of patients with PHH. The purpose of this review is to summarize the body of knowledge gained from animal studies.
